[Trailer] The Saw Is Family: Gun Media Announces ‘The Texas Chain Saw Massacre’ Video Game!
Gun Interactive is back at it with another asymmetrical multiplayer title. This time, the creators of Friday the 13th: The Game are teaming up with Sumo Nottingham for the brand new The Texas Chain Saw Massacre video game, Bloody Disgusting learned today.
We’re told the game will be based on Tobe Hooper’s seminal 1974 classic and will be heading to PC and current-gen consoles. In addition to being able to play as the original Leatherface, Gun Interactive will give you the choice of several different killers to choose from, including The Cook, The Hitchhiker, and brand-new characters.
A first teaser was just released, which shows Leatherface in all of his glory revving up his chainsaw and ending up with a victim’s blood all over his, er, someone else’s face!

“It’s no secret that the original The Texas Chain Saw Massacre is probably my favorite horror film ever created,” says Ronnie Hobbs, creative director at Gun Interactive. “Having the chance to really dive into the world of this IP with the team from Gun and working with Sumo to bring this vision to life has been almost surreal. I can’t wait for everyone to see more of what we’re doing.”
“We’re incredibly excited to finally reveal what we’ve been working on here at Sumo Nottingham. To be the first to truly bring the world of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre to life was an opportunity that could not be passed,” adds Darren Campion, executive producer at Sumo Nottingham. “The cult classic has been terrifying and spellbinding people for over 40 years and we’re thrilled with how the game is developing, we cannot wait for fans old and new to become part of this truly authentic experience.”

Come Face to Face With the Zombie Menace in the Story Trailer for ‘Zombie Army VR’ [Watch]
While there’s no definitive release date just yet, Rebellion is teasing fans with a new story trailer for the upcoming Zombie Army VR, which is expected to arrive later this year. The new trailer gives fans and prospective players a glimpse at the Zombie Army VR story campaign, which as you might have guessed, involves occult magic, waves of zombies, and plenty of headshots.
The game’s campaign takes place alongside the events of the Zombie Army series, and sees you take to the field as one of the Deadhunters, an elite squad that is hunting down zombie war criminals. You must fight your way through undead hordes near the bombed-out city of Nuremberg to help Captain Hermann Wolff, the Deadhunter’s legendary leader, find his scattered family and fight to free Europe from the zombie apocalypse.
As you navigate the full-length story campaign either alone or with an ally, you’ll have access to an arsenal of authentic World War II weaponry, including sniper rifles, submachine guns, pistols and more. As one would expect, VR brings a new level of immersion to the action of the Zombie Army series, which will require you to “get to grips” with using your hands to aim your rifle, dual-wield your side arm with a submachine gun, master reloading drills, and tossing grenades.
Zombie Army VR is currently in development for the PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest 2, 3, Pro, Oculus Rift and PC headsets via Steam.
